*Fast, easy entertainment: Roku TVs, indoor/outdoor games, and a classic Pac-Man arcade
*Laundry in each side with detergent, iron & board

Layout at a glance

Log Cabin (sleeps up to 6):
*Living room with electric-reclining sectionals + Roku TV on adjustable mount
*Kitchen + dining for 6 (plus 2 at island)
*3 upstairs king bedrooms, 2 full baths (main: shower; upper: tub/shower + double sinks)
*Front porch with swing & rockers

Guest Quarters (great single-level option):
*Living room seating for up to 8; Roku TV + surround sound
*Kitchen + dining for 6
*King bedroom with slider to private deck + 5-person hot tub (lounger)
*Queen pull-out in living room; dedicated work space with backyard view
*1 bath (shower), in-unit laundry

Shared Sunroom (between both):
*Climate-controlled, comfy seating, Roku TV, game/puzzle table
*Views through a wall of windows—guests call it peaceful and relaxing

Outdoors you’ll love
*Two hot tubs: 7-person at the cabin deck + 5-person at the guest-quarters deck
*Regulation-size pickleball court (Sport Court surface)
*Fire pit with complimentary firewood & skewers
*Gazebo with fire table; multiple seating areas for wildlife watching
*Frequent sightings: deer, birds, squirrels, chipmunks, the occasional ground hog

Things to note:

*Stairs & kiddos: The cabin’s top stair tread is shallower; railings may not suit tiny explorers. Families often place those needing single-level living in the Guest Quarters.
*Cameras disclosed: Exterior security cameras face entry/yard areas (including hot-tub zones) for safety, maintenance timing, and guest privacy—so we don’t interrupt you.
*Road: Private unpaved access road; drive slowly (especially with low-clearance cars).
*Parking: Limited; typically up to 7 vehicles depending on size and parking order—see photos for layout.
*Wood-burning stoves: High-efficiency units can over-heat the home when temps are above freezing; use is by host approval and when weather allows.
*Age & verification: Primary guest 25+; Truvi (formerly Superhog) ID verification within 24 hours of booking.
*Booking guest must sign rental agreement and provide credit card for $500 security deposit within 24 hours of booking.
*Visitors: Must be pre-approved; fees may apply.

Why groups love it

Reviews highlight an immaculate, thoughtfully stocked, “luxury-level” space that’s perfect for weddings, reunions, and family trips—king beds for all, room to spread out, and hosts who are responsive and organized (house guide + quick answers). Many guests say the lodge is even better than the photos and that it’s hard to leave.

My husband Ken and I love to work together. We got our real estate licenses together and then expanded into Run Rentals—our vacation rental business. We’ve moved a lot over the years and have kept busy with various home improvement projects. We love trees and being out in nature so we jumped at the opportunity to buy acreage with a log cabin and then decided to rent out our property to people looking to get away to recharge and relax.
